In the US most everyone wears knee/ shin guards mostly of the MX type.  I don't find them confining.  I once cracked the hard plastic on the outside of the knee guard so am certain it saved me from a nasty injury.

I use the Jitsie Dynamic knee/shin guards and tested them for real. So good I invested in the elbow guards aswell. 👍

they are the ones i have just bought they said they are like a big sock that you just pull over your knees which will be handy, and i hope you didn't bash your knees too much (what did you hit a tree or a rock ?)

yes knees and elbows are tender things  and need protecting from serious injury well worth wearing the guards

Did you get the Jitsie ones? 

When they warm and mould themselves to you they will soften up and you hardly know they're there. I have landed on rocks and they worked brilliantly.

I've had an Airoh for a few years and recently got another while it was on offer. There are a few more to choose from now more manufacturers are making similar designs like Mots and Hebo. The shape of the Airoh fits me a bit better.
